ANCHORAGE, Alaska - A woman who poured gasoline on the couch where her sleeping boyfriend lay and then shut the door after seeing him jump up and yell “hot, hot” will spend 60 years in prison for first-degree murder. She also was sentenced to 10 years of probation after her release for the 2012 death of Michael Gonzalez. He said she was not a monster and has shown remorse but did a “horrific, horrific, thing.”Before sentencing Virgilio indicated to the judge that mental illness drove her to this act. Virgilio entered a plea deal earlier this year, and the state agreed to a sentence of 30 to 70 years. When she saw Gonzalez get up and yell “hot, hot” she shut the door and fled.
